This was a birthday gift for a friend of mine, a little Animal Crossing themed toy made in a week, in Godot. The goal was simply to create an interactive scene featuring my friend’s Animal Crossing character.
The player has access to a small list of interactions:
- Clicking on the ground makes the character walk to that destination.
- Clicking on the character makes it do a wave animation, or a hug animation if the plushie is out.
- Clicking on the camera icon changes the camera angle.
- Clicking on the cat button takes out or puts away the cat plushie.
All the assets and animations were made by me, but the idea was heavily inspired by SpicyBeefu’s work.
